Pictorico transparency for printing negatives - A4

Pictorico Ultra Premium OHP Film A4 (20 sheets) | Alternative Photographic Supplies

Pictorico Ultra Premium OHP Film in A4 format (pack of 20 sheets) is the absolute gold standard in alternative photography. This unique transparent inkjet film is specifically designed to enable the production of high-quality negatives directly from digital files (so-called digital negatives).

Thanks to its advanced technology, it delivers excellent results in home or studio environments, without the need for a traditional large-format camera.

Innovative Ceramic Coating Layer

Historical photographic processes place strict demands on negatives. For successful contact printing, the material must not only match the required size but, above all, achieve very high contrast and optical density — significantly higher than that required for standard photographic enlargement.

Conventional office transparency films cannot hold such a large amount of black and colour ink. Pictorico film is coated with a special ceramic powder layer, which:

• Rapidly absorbs extremely high ink loads
• Prevents bleeding and line distortion
• Enables maximum negative density required to block UV light during exposure
• Works with standard photographic inks, without the need for expensive specialist inks

Perfectly Suited for Alternative Photographic Processes

By printing a digital negative on Pictorico film, you can precisely control its tonal curve and contrast to match the specific historical process you intend to use. It is an unmatched material for techniques such as:

• Cyanotype (sharp detail and deep Prussian blue tones)
• Platinum and Palladium printing (precise tonal transitions in midtones)
• Van Dyke Brown and salt prints
• Albumen printing and dichromate gum printing
